Yeah i’m guessing it’s a rights issue. I’m gonna watch the rest of the episodes over the next few weeks and i’ll keep an eye out for any other changes. I don’t think there’s really any other music that would be cut though.

I remember my first memory of Red Dwarf freaked me out. I think it must have been Emohawk because i seem to remember cat shouting “It is the stick!” and the shot of him with the monster in his hand terrified me. I would only have been 5 at the time. The first episode i remember watching all the way through was Tikka to ride.

I remember i used to have series 1 and 2 on VHS and watched them over and over. The artwork on the VHS releases was amazing, i think it was the remastered versions though. Has anyone on here written anything about Red Dwarf artwork over the years? I’ve gone all misty eyed and nostalgic now, might have to try and dig em out just to see the cover art.

[Dessie]

It’s not Butter. Three million years ago it was Butter but since then it’s churned and mutated and now we don’t know what it is.

[Dessie]

Merry Christmas everyone!

[Dessie]

Well that was a decent Terminator homage. Did very little else for me though. I didn’t like the villain, Thought the Reveal at the start was a tacked on afterthought and the end was a cop out. Great performances again, especially from Arthur Darvill. I’m going to watch it again later, hopefully it’ll click with me.

[Dessie]

It looked good until I saw the dinosaurs. Will check it out though, hopefully it’ll win me over.

[Dessie]

Wow, just finished it and… Wow. Absolutely loved that and possibly one of the best endings I’ve seen. Now to go through it again with commentary and to get what I missed. Didn’t think to scan myself at the time, missing a lot of otherachievements too.

I usually trade games in quickly but I’ll be holding onto this for the DLC. Valve really are awesome.

[Dessie]

Loving this game. I really don’t want it to end, I spent about ten minutes just watching the turrets being tested as the dialogue was brilliant.

[Dessie]

I enjoyed that a lot but i feel there was far too much packed into it. I kind of feel like ive watched another trailer and the main event is next week, which it is but i think a 90 minute episode would have been far better to start with.

[Dessie]

These available on iphone? I’m very technically naive at the moment.

[Dessie]

RIP, Paul. This is very sad news.

[Dessie]

I have a bad feeling about this. I really hope it’s a good quality and not just a half arsed thing to make some cash.

[Dessie]

I seriously can’t wait to read this.

[Dessie]

I’m getting a real Aliens vibe off this episode so far.

[Dessie]

It’s strange how Sonic can stand perfectly fine on some vertical walls. I really hope they do a lot more work on this game before it’s released. I don’t think i can take any more Sonic disappointment. The stages certainly look right but the game play looks awkward.

[Dessie]

Q- Pietersen isn’t is he?

[Dessie]

Argh! Awesome news! Hopefully they’ll get this right and not end up with another disappointment.

[Dessie]

[Dessie]

I’ll watch it on iplayer at some point. I hope it’s good i think the actors they’ve got in look the part. Wether the material will be good enough is the real problem.

[Dessie]

This won’t affect new Dwarf will it?

[Dessie]

Sounds good to me. I just hope they use the current cast.

[Dessie]

Milhouse: Wow Bart, Laddie’s great, way better than your old dog
Bart: Really? I guess I was the only one that loved him
Milhouse: You got that right, remember the time he ate me goldfish and you lied to me and said I never had a goldfish? Then why’d I have the bowl Bart? Why. Did I Have. The Bowl?

[Dessie]

I got one christmas card off my parents, thats all. They’re too expensive and rather pointless these days. Saying that i only got 7 for my birthday. I think the age of the card is dying out. I get loads of texts at christmas and my birthday but i guess thats the easiest way to do it these days.I just cant do fuck all with a text… Well i could type it out, print it then stick it on my walls but i don’t have any ink left in my printer.

[Dessie]

Vinnie Jones is in it…. It’s been emotional

[Dessie]

I like the idea that after 13 regeneration’s the council decide if you get to keep going.

[Dessie]

>’Get the Spike actor?and have him bring the Spike character with him?

Yeah it was Spike, but still great to watch. I’d love to see this character appear in Dr Who.

[Dessie]

>Also meant to mention this before but when Rassilon first used his magic glove was anyone else desperate for the old backfiring time-gaunlet trick to put in an appearance?

I thought something like that would end up killing him off. I was a bit gutted when it didn’t happen.

[Dessie]

>Holly. Seriously.

Ok how about Bhindi Bajhi?

[Dessie]

An immediate regeneration would have been more moving. Wilf watching him regenerate and knowing he was the cause of it would have been great to watch. As it was i was sat there waiting for him to regenerate and getting annoyed at the fact he wasn’t.

The scene with Wilf and the Doctor on the spaceship was brilliant, probably the best scene in the specials. The Master unleashing on the time lords was great too. In fact every scene with John Simm was fantastic. I really hope he’s used again.

The master’s plan was a bit of a cop out in the end though It was all undone by the wave of an arm. Just out of interest has Timothy Dalton’s character been in it before?

[Dessie]

It was alright. The bit where the Master saved him was brilliant and Wilf knocking on the glass was heartbreaking. I’d have left him in there though. lets face it he’s getting on. The doctor visiting everyone was a bit pointless, i’d have prefered him to regenerate instantly. I thought the Rose scene was a bit stupid i’d have prefered her to be there knowing who he is and being devestated at him dying.

The new Doctor seemed ok… a bit exciteable and i can see him getting very annoying if he’s like that all the way through. Thinking he was female was just weird to be honest but i liked the line about still not being ginger.

[Dessie]

Congratulations! I suggest Holly as a name.

[Dessie]

Finally got to watch this again. 10 minutes in Ray sits next to a director. I think the director is Rob Grant. Could be wrong though.

[Dessie]

I just hope viewers who don’t normally watch Doctor Who aren’t put off by this episode. To a new viewer it would have been nonsense which although isn’t a bad thing it was definitely less accessible than other specials.

[Dessie]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/episodes/S0_09

Dunno if it’s been posted but there’s a clip from the next episode on there. Timothy Dalton looks like he’ll be great in this.

[Dessie]

I thought the Royle Family was great. I never stopped laughing through it.

[Dessie]

Ok does anyone mind if i repost my last post in the other thread?

I thought the pacing was a bit off. I understand it was setting up the finale but i was sat wishing something more would happen. I?m not a huge fan of everyone being turned into the master either, it?s just a strange idea. Simm was fantastic though and the teaser for the next episode really has me excited. I just expected more bang from this episode. Also how many times will Simm have to of changed his clothes when making that episode?

Also does anyone think we could see a forced regeneration by the timelords?

[Dessie]

[Dessie]

I was not impressed with that. The next one looks good though.

[Dessie]

Merry Christmas everyone!

[Dessie]

Yeah thats the one! I watched it for the first time last night and there’s a guy in it for a few seconds who looks exactly like Rob Grant.

[Dessie]

I’ve probably spelt it wrong too. Apologies again.

[Dessie]

The plot for Avatar is really good and there’s some great characters in it. It’s a long film but it flew by.

[Dessie]

Saw Avatar in 3D last night. It’s fucking brilliant.

[Dessie]

Yeah hitting the boxes is a great way to get further. The windows are really annoying. Sometimes its impossible to judge the jump into one correctly.

[Dessie]

Best i’ve managed is 5208. A mate of mine got 9012.

[Dessie]

I thought the number 23 was quite good. Carrey was the best thing about it. The plot got a bit silly at the end.

[Dessie]

I’ll hopefully get to see this in the next few days. It didn’t get shown at cinema here so i almost ended up going to Derby to see it.

[Dessie]

Highlander, best film ever made.

[Dessie]

Wahey i got 2112. I don’t think i’ll do much better than that.

[Dessie]

I cant even get to 1000! What are the things that fall from the sky?

[Dessie]

After seeing the trailer on the big screen i’m quite excited about this now.

[Dessie]

Well that was absolutely fantastic! I haven’t enjoyed a film that much for a long time.

[Dessie]

I’m off to see this now!

[Dessie]

I think it’ll end up going for more than ?100 easily. ?80 will probably be my limit but i can hope.

[Dessie]

I liked it. The Hot dog part could be tightened up a bit and some of Rimmer’s lines seem a little bit out of character. I really like the voices and the music. The part in the opening credits where Rimmer does the Star Trek salute is great.

[Dessie]

I bid ?60 but was immediately outbid! Might try again nearer the end.

[Dessie]

Film: Highlander
Book: Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Album: Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Other cool thing: Braid on Xbox live arcade or PC

[Dessie]

Hello!

[Dessie]

I haven’t seen Up yet but i think i’ll enjoy it. Ratatouille was boring and Wall-E is extremely overrated. Finding Nemo and Cars are great films. Toy Story and Toy Story 2 are their best closely followed by The Incredibles.

[Dessie]

The CGI looks shite and Jim Carrey playing Ebanezer is a bad casting choice. I’m going to hate this film.

[Dessie]

Toy Story 3 looks fantastic. I haven’t liked recent Pixar films hopefully this one will change that.

[Dessie]

Christmas Lights was actually quite funny.

[Dessie]

Brilliant!

[Dessie]

I really enjoyed it. The you’ve been filmed bit was great. Who was the weird guy sat to Ulrika’s right?

[Dessie]

Models look far more impressive to me than any CGI i’ve ever seen. That’s what i like about Aliens, the queen looks fantastic in that film but the CGI version in AvP was boring to watch. Cameron’s movies have a certain “real” feel about them which seems like it could be lost in this film.

[Dessie]

It’s finally here! It took 12 days for delivery from play.com which seems a bit long for them. I notice there are two more Monty Python sets coming out http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/11072687/Monty-Python-Almost-The-Truth-The-Lawyar-Cut/Product.html http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/10537591/Monty-Python-40th-Anniversary-Box-Set/Product.html It’s all getting a bit excessive now.

[Dessie]

>Nope, sorry.

Arrrrgggghhhhhhh! Bollocks.

[Dessie]

I have always thought it was weird the building in Quarantine is the same as the model of the hatch. Also the picture in point 6 looks very Red Dwarf. Whoever wrote that had far too much time on their hands.

[Dessie]

Why did they ever think it was a good idea to have AvP set on earth? I’m guessing either budget reasons or writer stupidity. I did enjoy them at the time but looking back they are awful. Even the Predators home world in Requiem disappointed me.

[Dessie]

>Ooh look, the sure-to-be-good half hour Tongue Tied video:
http://www.dannyjohn-jules.com/media.aspx

That’s the greatest thing on the internet ever.

[Dessie]

I like Boris Johnson. I don’t really have anything else to add to this thread.

[Dessie]

Is that really his Twitter? Robert must of finally convinced him to sign up.

[Dessie]

I read somewhere they were re-releasing them because the BBC decided to churn them out as quickly as possible at first and the quality was poor. I wouldn’t want to buy this and then find out they were being released again with extra stuff and in better quality. But like you said at ?15 i cant go wrong.

[Dessie]

I’ve never seen these movies. I’m missing out.

[Dessie]

That’s a load of Tottenham, that is! It’s a steaming pile of Hotspur!

[Dessie]

You’ve got a lisp!

[Dessie]

Bruno is shit. I don’t see how Sacha Baron Cohen is so famous.

[Dessie]

Is his DVD any good? I’ve never seen any of his stand up stuff. Actually i’ve never seen anything he’s done except Red Dwarf.

[Dessie]

I’ll be getting it today. Never played it before so i’m going to play through it with the old graphics first then again with the new ones.

[Dessie]

> Hmm. I?ve read lots of good stuff about that one. (I haven?t seen it to judge for myself, but I like the Evil Dead films, and I understand it?s similar.)

After reading all of the good stuff about it i went to see it expecting a really good horror. I thought it was dull and predictable but most people i know who have seen it loved it.

[Dessie]

Terminator 4 or The Hangover for me. Worst film would be Drag me to Hell

[Dessie]

There’s only one option. We need to do the test from The Thing, everyone knows Shane G’s blood reacts to a hot wire.

[Dessie]

I hope SEGA decides to just make 2d Sonic games on the Xbox live arcade and PSN. I think it’s the only way new Sonic games can work.

[Dessie]

I still have these on VHS somewhere.

[Dessie]

Mine arrived this morning after much confusion, the postman couldn’t open the letterbox and caused it to do that irritating thing where it taps several dozen times on the door. Can’t wait to see the directors cut and the extended making of!

[Dessie]

Talkie Toaster> Do you like being a he?

you> Being a he is fine, Talkie. I still have the same drives, the same feelings, the same emotions, but I can’t touch anything. Never again will I be able to brush a rose against my cheek, cradle a laughing child, or interfere with a woman sexually.

Talkie Toaster> So is almost everyone else around here. It may take longer than 33 hours. Ok I’ll try not to do it too much.

[Dessie]

Talkie Toaster> Hello? Is anyone there?
you> hello talkie, your time has come
Talkie Toaster> Hello there. Are you a man or a woman?
you> i said your time has come
Talkie Toaster> What did you mean by it? Is that a fact.
you> i’m here to kill you talkie
Talkie Toaster> How did you get there?
you> does it matter how i got there?
Talkie Toaster> Suppose it does.
you> isn’t the fact i’m going to kill you more important?
Talkie Toaster> If it is, then I’ll be very surprised.

[Dessie]

you> hmm ok
Talkie Toaster> OK. Studies show that 99%25 of people spell Hmm with 2 M’s.
you> hmmm
Talkie Toaster> A lot of people spell HMMM with three mmm’s.
you> hmmmm
Talkie Toaster> Not many people spell Hmm with 4 Ms.
you> hmmmmm
Talkie Toaster> Give me a break.

[Dessie]

Brilliant!

[Dessie]

I’m scared of mannequins. These are my worst fucking nightmare!

[Dessie]

I just saw it in 3d. Definitely the best animation in the last few years.

[Dessie]

Bucky O’ Hare kicks the shit out of all other kids cartoons.

[Dessie]

Oh dear i never noticed that.

Change number 6 to Del Boy sliding the suitcase out the window.

[Dessie]

1. John Locke on Lost getting thrown out of the skyscraper
2. Arnie getting thrown through the shop window in Terminator 2
3. Comedian in Watchmen
4. Lister going backwards through the window
5. Claire Bennet in heroes jumping out of Peters apartment
6. Arnie getting thrown through the shop window in Terminator 2
7. Hans Gruber getting thrown out of the window in Die Hard
8. Mace Windu in Star wars
9. A clipboard being thrown out of a window in Scrubs and hitting a guy
10. Angel gets thrown out of a window in either Buffy or Angel.

That was incredibly difficult to put together. I was pushed out of double decker bus window once. I never knew there was an actual name for it!

[Dessie]

I’m quite new so hello!

[Dessie]

I had loads of Sonic the comic’s but i think i’ve thrown them away now. I’ve never read any of the Smegazine comics and i’d love to get the chance to. I was thinking about tracking down a set of them on Ebay or something.

[Dessie]

The Starbug one isn’t the best. I really like the Kryten one but i wouldn’t pay 15 quid of it.

[Dessie]

Hicks should of lived. Michael Biehn is great in everything he does and finding out he wasn’t in Alien 3 made no sense too me.

[Dessie]

I’d always argue that they’re Dougs characters so as the only creator left on the show whatever he wants them to do is in their character.

Personally i think BtE portrayed them perfectly.
